General
PARTNERSHIP
In early 2019 he began playing alongside Bruno Schmidt. "Bruno is known as 'Magician' and that is exactly what he is. He does incredible plays and is an extraordinary athlete, full of resources. He made me feel calm, relaxed. He told me since the beginning to have fun on the court. We know we still have plenty to learn, we have the will to improve. He also is great at reading the game, he gives me some tips about where to put my arms during blocking. I am very happy." (voleidepraia.cbv.com.br, 01 Dec 2019; gazetaesportiva.com, 23 Feb 2019)

EARLY DAYS
At 16 he left his parents' home in Rio de Janeiro to go to Sao Paulo to play volleyball for Banespa. "I stayed there for three years. It was difficult, but I don't regret it." (primeiroset.com.br, 22 Mar 2012)
